Geological Summary
METALLIC SULPHIDES OCCUR IN QUARTZ-CALCITE VEINS AND DISSEMINATIONS IN THE COUNTRY ROCK OF NICOLA VOLCANICS AND SEDIMENTS OF TRIASSIC AGE. THESE STRATA ARE FOLDED AND AT SWAKUM MTN. THEY ARE IN A SOUTH-PLUNGING ANTICLINE WHOSE AXIS LIES CLOSE TO THE MTN. SUMMIT. A STRONG MAGNETIC ANOMALY AT THE PEAK MAY INDICATE A BURIED INTRUSIVE WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN THE SOURCE OF MINERALIZATION. THE DEPOSITS RANGE FROM COPPER-TUNGSTEN IN SKARN AT THE LUCKY MIKE SHAFT TO THE NORTH, TO HYDROTHERAL VEINS OF ZINC, LEAD AND SILVER TO THE SOUTH, AT THE OLD CORONA SHAFTS. THESE EXPOSURES PLUS THE GEOCHEMICAL RESULTS INDICATE A ZONE OF MINERAL- IZATION 4 KM LONG (NORTH-SOUTH) AND 1 KM WIDE.
